Now I know this should be probably left in the classic forum, but I always be criticized for a lack of a Contemporary view, so there is a positive bias here for modern fighters; have I got it right this time? (I think I might know the answer!)

The numbers in brackets were places I placed my top 35 of all-time in April 2005

Not to be Biased PAc should be in the 80's at least ..this man was a Flyweight champ and a destroyer at Super Bantam. Al his fights now are just icin on the cake..Give him credit at the lower weight just like you do Wilde.

Speaking of Wilde, Pancho Villa should be higher dude.( at least top 20 although below Wilde)..He punished Wilde and died at 22 or something and theres a controversy attached to it...Ill expand if you want me to

IMO id put Trinidad above Floyd Mayweather, Trinidad has done more in hes career than Floyd has up until this point if you ask me, the two losses hurt him bad because of the domination but hey its just my opinion. I think an undefeated Vargas and DLH beat any 2 names on Mayweathers list exculding the promoter he just fought.

Lists like this are extremely hard to make. For the most part it is pretty good. Ones that I take issue with are:

-Pacquiao being so low. He's already won titles in 3 divisions, is the top contender in a 4th, ranging from 112 to 130. He's more accomplished than guys such as Brian Mitchell, Winky Wright, and Aaron Pryor (who wasted too much of his talent)

-De La Hoya being so high. Oscar's a terrific fighter, but #21? Ahead of guys like Joe Louis, Tommy Hearns, and Marvin Hagler?

-Moore being 10 spots ahead of Charles. Moore obviously had more fights and more wins, but Charles went 3-0 against him at LHW (where Charles had a staggering resume in a relatively small # of fights) when they were in/near their primes, and also Charles was a very good HW champion as well.
